Man killed in South Beach shooting; witnesses describe chaotic scene

MIAMI BEACH, FLA. (WSVN) - A man was killed after a barrage of bullets disrupted holiday weekend festivities near a busy South Beach intersection, triggering chaos as people ran for cover, witnesses said.

Miami Beach Police and Fire Rescue units responded to the scene in front of a Walgreens on 14th Street and Collins Avenue, at around 11:40 p.m., Saturday.

Witnesses said they heard several rounds go off, which triggered a panic.

“It sounded like six to 10 pops. I thought it was firecrackers,” said witness Harry Wilson.
